Custom RC Boat
Well This is my First post and First toime here.. Figgure post up what I just completed.
Traxxas Powered custom rebuild.
Just finished building this thing today Bought it took it out of the box pulled all the stock stuff out, wasent even gonna bother charging the stock battery. This is what it looks like now
All Traxxas powered. 380 size brushless motor, water proof ESC with lipo cut out all came out of my 1/16 Summit. Running the Traxxas Link 2.4ghz transmitter. Dual Tenergy 1800mah 7.4v Lipo battery in a parallel connection.
Video to come really soon.
This thing is fast. I changed out the prop since these photos were taken, the other one was much larger but had a vibration. Got someone wanting to buy it, I have not even ran it yet. But I am going to have to put a few runs on it make a video.<o></o>
My next project is to buy the larger one of this model and do a Mamba 2200kv conversion.
